Episode 42: Audrey Sharpe - Editing her Mother, being inspired by Star Trek, and Galactic Civilizations

In this episode, I chat with Audrey Sharpe about having a mother who's a professional writer, being inspired by Star Trek, and the possible existence of galactic civilizations. We also discuss designing spaceships only to destroy them, old science giving way to new science, and the future of human reproduction.

As usual, there's also The Lightning Round and The Big Questions.


Books of hers we discuss are: The Starhawke Rising Series, Starhawk Rogue, Guardian Mate
